NacIK
aka Dirty Hoe
Well, for the last year my 'hoe has been driving weird. It felt like it was dragging. I changed all of my fluids and felt a little change, but not much. Plus, I was getting horrible gas mileage, around 12. I disconnected my MAF last week when I cleaned my air filter and forgot to reconnect it. I was amazed by the difference. I now have so much power and my mileage is back up to 16 mpg. It is running smoothly and like new again! The only problem is the transmission shifts hard, especially when shifting into drive. I remember reading somewhere that the MAF controls the transmission line pressure and this could be why my transmission was acting up for the last year.
Since I have came to the conclusion that I destroyed my MAF last year when I over oiled my K&N I will have to save money and replace it. Until then is there any problems with not having the MAF connected? As long as I don't blow up my transmission I might just keep it that way until I get my 411 swapped and programmed. I now remember why so many love the L31 over the early LS series. The thing is loaded with torque!
